Default First kills!

First victim was a (seemingly) hooked-up Celica GT-S. Kinda funny how it happened. There was no theatrical revving or challenging glances. We just came up to the light...and on the green, after rolling to mabe 5-10mph we both floored it. Had em in my mirrors by time we hit traffic. I gotta say chrome rims usually give away someone more concerned about appearance than performance.

Second kill came maybe 20 min later on the same road. I think it was a Cobalt SS but I'm not sure. I could surely hear a turbo or some other form of forced induction shrieking behind me.

hhahaa a celica gt-s would own you. maybe it was a celica GT, which is the 140 hp engine they use in the corolla.

and as for a cobalt ss, no, a ss would also hand u its ***. you most likely raced the non ss one or the non s/c cobalt.

Probably just a GT with a body kit.

As for that Cobalt, like I said I don't even know if it was a Cobalt to begin with. As for an SS handing me its ***, not necessarily. Non s/c SS makes something like 171 if I remember correctly, 20 down on the V6 Stang. Don't know what it weighs though. That still doesn't explain the whistle I was hearing. I would honestly love to know wtf that car was.

Nice kills. But like tightdogal said, it had to of been a Celica GT, or if it was an automatic GT-S, I could see you winning because those things run 16's in the 1/4. And it could have been a base Cobalt with the 2.2L and he could of just had an intake you were hearing.

If your bone stock you woulda seen both cars tails unless it was an old celica. Or maybe you raced two horrible drivers. Either way nice kills

It was a late model Celica. Honestly, save for perhaps the GT-S, I have a hard time believing a Celica would have taken me.

At least not a supercharged one, maybe N/A.
